History and the use of religion by political powers
December 27, 2013 at 8:38 am
.... for profit

Just sat through about 4 hours of history and found it fascinating, that political powers are so weak that they HAVE to call on the divine to assert their authority. So what else is new? Dunno

Any way, thought I would park these little titbits here for viewing, pity things like this were NOT taught in History classes
